   Hmmmmm…That would have made him 16-17 years old? What I find interesting is the fact that all these witnesses come forward only AFTER Blink started snooping around…..WHilke the cops sat on their donut eatting behinds, dismissing Christine as a runaway…Are you kidding me? I love how these very same cops, claim that it was an on going investgation…Yeah! by BLINK! these cops really did nothing….I can not imagine all these people knowing this kid killed her way back when…..And even knew where he buried her remains…..What cowards these so called witnesses are now. Why and the heck didn’t they come forward back in 2007? They knew they were looking for her…These witnesses should all be arrested for not stepping forward way sooner. How do people live with themselves?

   I’m gald that Christine’s mom has not the ending she really wanted….But Christine can now be laid to rest and her family can find peace. Bless you Blink for making most of this happen.

   our long national nightmare is finally over, to quote a prez. I’m sad to think that others will get off scot free (i can’t view the press release, so hope I am wrong) but am heartened that Hadel is under arrest for this senseless crime.

   wow. was he 17 or 18 when he killed her?

   Here is my thing … did Justin even have a car?? Someone had to have taken her body to the Bed and Breakfast … Why aren’t there more arrests or are they coming?!?! Anyone who knew of this crime, which appears to be more than a few need to have charges filed against them. This is sick!! AND this is exactly what I told the cops two and half years ago. The police department also has a lot of explaining to do … Christine was a great person and I am glad that she can now be laid to rest respectfully!!

   I don’t think any witnesses came “forward” I believe they sitting in jail and think by them talking it might help get them out….

   JMHO!!!! But with saying that… THANK YOU BLINK AND TENNESSEE!!!!!!

   Again JMHO..

   I reckon he may be the first domino pushed. Many more are waiting to fall. I wonder how many have an attorney already and are negotiating for no jail time in exchange for full disclosure.

   The lead ditchpig seems to be the first one to roll over on the others. I wonder what he was able to negotiate to finally tell what he knows? He was the alpha dog in that pack. IMHO, nothing happened without his consent, if not full participation.

   Mrs. Lynn, be strong today, as in days past. And hug those littles, from the crowd at BOC.

    March 10, 2010 at 12:59 pm

    Happy that they have named the murderer and have him under arrest.

    Just wonderng why all the people who witnessed this and also helped in her body placement aren’t under arrest too. Does this mean “Sir” is alive and well and still covering for this crew? Hope all this comes out as the investigation progresses.

    It was wonderful to see ARREST MADE when I opened The BOC page this morning. My prayers are with the family.

    I am finding it hard to believe that he acted alone. Why remain silent for so long in order to protect him? I hope he is more than a convenient scape goat for the others. I am confident that LE now will get to the bottom of Christine’s story, perhaps I am being too cynical, and they already have… Regardless, today is a good day. My thoughts are with Christine’s Mom, Family and Friends.
12. Sdb says:

    March 10, 2010 at 1:32 pm

    Blink, please tell me there will be more arrests made.

    Blink, may God bless for your hard work on this case! Your hard work and dedication have paid off. I know how busy you are but would love to see you research/feature the Jennifer and Adrianna Wix case. This cold case has haunted so many and unfortunately it appears that LE has turned their heads. Thanks and God bless you.
14. Sdb says:

    March 10, 2010 at 1:36 pm

    They say he killed her Nov. 13th. Did not JR tell her mother on the 14th “she was here this morning”? Why is that POS walking around free?
15. artgal16 says:

    March 10, 2010 at 2:24 pm

    Does anyone know a motive of why he would have killed her? They must have some physical evidence that he did it – no?
16. Carol says:

    March 10, 2010 at 2:25 pm

    I have goose bumps all over my body – and not the good kind. Blink and Crew/Posters…incredible incredible work here. I hope that Christine’s family can find a little little bit of peace knowing her murderer is in jail. Rest in Peace Christine, you are in our hearts.

    JMH killed her, but who helped him cover it up? I can’t buy into him disposing of her body (sorry) all by himself. At 16/17 years old? Nope. Someone helped him. And as said above…where the hell have the witnesses been? Under a rock? We have been looking for Christine for well over two years. And I want to know what happened. And most importantly, WHY?? What in the world did she do to him that he had to kill her. And where were her children when this occurred.

    I damn hope we see some other arrests and soon.
    I gotta go out for a smoke – flipping angry after reading that news release (grateful he is charged for the crime – but flipping angry).

    So happy he is in jail. I too hope that more arrests follow. Rest in peace Christine. Hugs to Christine’s family and friends. She is forever your angel.

    March 10, 2010 at 2:43 pm

    Blink and Team/Posters – great work! I was so happy to see this posting when I opened your site today. I can only hope there will be more arrests to follow since there is no way he covered it up all by himself especially being 16/17 years old… Still so many unanswered questions but now at least Christine’s family can lay her to rest and see justice done…
19. Amy Y. says:

    March 10, 2010 at 3:44 pm

    Thank goodness! Maybe now the family can get some well-deserved peace, although my heart aches for those motherless babies of hers. I just hope that everyone involved in hurting her is caught and given what they deserve. Prayers for Christine’s family!

    Awesome news. Finally we are getting somewhere with all this. Christine has been found and someone will pay. But I do have to agree with everyone else in this. He could not have done this all by himself. Someone helped. And I hope that soon they will pay as well. God bless you Blink for all your hard work with this case. And my thoughts and prayers go out the Christine’s family and friends. May she now rest in peace knowing that her killer will be served the justice he deserves. Lets just hope his accomplices also pay.

    A Texas Grandfather
    I am glad that LE finally got off their lazy rear ends and got the job done. There are some people that should be charged for not notifying the authorities in this case.
    A sixteen year old can easily overpower a woman.

    It looks like a little exposure for lazy police work and the determination of Christine’s mother finally paid off.

    There are a lot of teenagers out there that will have a hard time behaving themselves as they reach maturity due to the fact that they have never been told NO for any reason. They have been rasised to believe that anything they want to do is ok.

    The time has come for each and every community in the nation to put a stop to our broken,revolving door criminal justice system. This means that all the people in the community must join together to make certain that the police, the judges and the lawyers are doing the right thing.
    Plea bargans must be stopped as well as time off for good behavior and all paroles removed for any perp who asults another person in any way. Career criminals should simply be put to sleep. Why should good citizens continue to pay for keeping these people alive.

    Good work Blink and may Christine’s famiy find some peace.

    If Jackson is out of jail with the goal of arresting him later on murder charges, I believe that is extremely risky and irresponsible
    on the part of law enforcement.

    I hope JMH is being counseled to roll on Jackson and Johnson.
    This case is a travesty from start to finish.

    Lynn, you’ve inspired me to work harder and better.
    We will find justice for your lovely Christine.

    This case has come a long way since I accidentally stumbled onto BOC a year or so ago.

    Regarding this arrest: the good book says not to despise small beginnings. I sure hope this arrest is one of many. Without the silence from the people that not only kept quiet but aided and abetted this little turd…he would have been where he belonged a long time ago!

    Let me say this- my girl Christine has guided us this far, and I dare say I do not think she will leave anyone believing that this snot-nosed pissant acted alone.

    I have always said Christine gets dibs on the final chapter in this case, and final dibs she will have.

    wooohooo! Ive never been so happy reading a headline on BOC. Blink you should really be proud of yourself and your team, you told Christines story and brought her to life for all of us, even in the face of so much adversity, i <3 you guys. Justice for Christine!

    I am filling in for Ms. Blink, but I wanted to say I am very proud of her and team’s work on the Sheddy case.

    There is a gaggle of keyboard cowboys out there who put her and the Sheddy family through Hell just for doing her job.

    I asked her to fill me in on the apologies she receives.
26. Friend says:

    March 10, 2010 at 7:49 pm

    I am so happy to read of his arrest! HOWEVER, common sense dictates that there HAS TO BE more arrests, i.e. accessory, disposal, etc.

    For those that haven’t seen Blink’s article, which includes stills of the next door neighbor’s security cam of the farm (with a timeline) on the 13th, it is a must see.

    http://blinkoncrime.com/2009/08/27/christine-sheddy-casemurder-in-maryland-chapter-6/#more-2377

    I am praying for justice for Christine and her loved ones.

    Prayers for Lynn & Christine’s children.

    Thank you Blink for bringing this to our attention for for everyone’s efforts to find Christine & to begin to bring justice.

    Christine did speak to us.

    I went back through Blink’s previous articles and found this snip just chilling:

    snipped from chapter 6

    http://blinkoncrime.com/2009/08/27/christine-sheddy-casemurder-in-maryland-chapter-6/

    “The last time Christine Sheddy’s best friend “Q” spoke to her at approximately 9:30Pm on November 12th she was trying to whisper something to him. He could not hear her. He heard a guy in the back talking about how they were gonna keep her, she’s so good to them, so nice to look at.. You get the picture. Skeeve Meter twenty out of ten.

    Christine put him on the phone with Q as he kept following her around talking in the background. Q describes the voice on the other end of the phone as a red kneck. Definately not JR or Dominick. Justin and Q chat for a few seconds with the regular niceties.”

    I believe there will be more arrests in the future.

    March 10, 2010 at 11:27 pm

    God Bless Blink, crew, Christine and family but…Red I do remember you asking for a certain one or two to quit being a cowared and come forward. We all know everyone there that night of the 13th knew what happened, had some conversation about what to do with her and we all saw the activity coming and going on camera. There may be up to oh maybe 10 people with blood on their hands! Looks like ole JR ain’t so dumb after all. He rolled first and now holds his head high in the same city. Makes me want to vomit. Sorry, just hoping more are going down. I can live with her murderer gone forever but it just ain’t fair. Poor Lynn having to live around that scum. Like I said, if I ever come up missing someone call Blink for me! This is a good thing and I didn’t mean to sound so ungrateful or sour. I appreciate/admire everything BOC does.

    March 11, 2010 at 12:17 am

    it looks funny to me that jr rolls over on the only under age person there , wonder if the laws there give less sentences and sponge the records of crimes that were done as a juvenile , can still go to juvenile court and get their records wiped clean. wonder if it was a plan if things looked like they were going to get caught to do this just thinking aloud and it is pissing me off that these maggots have got away with it this long

    There is no chance he will be tried as a juvenile under Maryland statute, however, I completely agree that Jr and Tia plan to take cover behind the fact that there is also no law against improper burial.

    I do not believe that will work, and according to Joel Todd this is a continuing investigation. Hang In.

    March 11, 2010 at 10:01 am

    Okay, so I’ve got the “who”, the “where”, and now we see (partially) the “what”, but where’s the “why”? What would this then 17-ish year old kid have against dear Christine? I don’t for one solitary minute believe that he is solely responsible for her death, but even so, what motive would Jr. and/or Tia have? Money? Power? Sex? Perhaps I am just not familiar enough with the case.

    Blink – if you’ve covered this already and I missed it, could you direct me please. P.S. I do hope you start feeling better soon. I fell recently while skating with my daughter. My injury was nowhere close to the severity of yours, but I did think I cracked my tailbone. It’s hell getting old.

    I have been asked to withhold comment on anything case sensitive, but I will say I don’t believe what is being spewed by these individuals.

    My prayers today are focussed on Lynn, and the 3 little cherubs. You have never walked alone. Christine will never be forgotten.

    You and Lynne have endured so much..but it is all coming to fruition now…a standing ovation to Blink and Lynne.

    My heart, hugs and kisses to you my dear friend. You may recall, were it not for your encouragement, and that of our team, I would have chosen other work. It is a win for you too

    Great work Blink and all who helped..
38. Marci/Kosmo says:

    March 11, 2010 at 10:01 pm

    Why oh why did I do I let trash get to me???
    I am sorry Blink I go to your site daily and I don’t post all the time but this case (and a few more) have really got to me. By the way sorry about your “injury” and thanks to RED!!!! You both to me are amazing and I know you mean so much too so many.. Just look at Mr. Harrington and his beloved beloved angel Morgan that comes here. Lord my prayers go out for them and for you and Red for all that you do.

    But why oh why do I let trash like the PPE get to me???? Maybe because I can’t believe there are really people like that out there.. I so pray that some day .. some day we won’t have to deal with trash like this.. That everyone will have a heart and SOUL..

    I will understand if you don’t post this Blink as I have felt from the first time I came to this site that it was full of integrity and awesome posters who really CARE

    Sorry had to vent

    God rest your soul Christine you were loved

    What would have happened to this case had you not pointed your brilliant light on it, Blink? God Bless you, my friend.

    Since I’ve been coming to your website, I’ve said to you many times what important, serious work you do. This story proves that statement.

    All the naysayers should be down on their knees begging your forbearance. Haven’t seen any apologies yet, have you?

    Honestly, I care about 4 apologies-

    They would be to Christine Sheddy.

    TY friend

    March 11, 2010 at 10:42 pm

    Sorry for all the repeating ,,,, I just get so upset when people don’t have compassion or grace..What has this world come too?? thank god for people like the ones post on here… Blink you have some people on here.. Like Sky J2 K Fish Red Hill Cvill Locvill KLEAT (awesome) Observer SUZ MOMOF3 and there are so many more.. (I’m sure I got a bunch of the names wrong) But you all and so many more in this site are so very special!! Thank YOU ALL!!!

    Remind me one day what I can share with you all about me and my husband’s talk with our boys about stranger dangers. Maybe one day I can share it and it will make you laugh as it did us with tears running down our cheeks and you will be able to see through my eyes the faces of the innocence … ones that during such a painful and honest subject can give you all joy…
    While my thoughts have been so deeply with Christine’s family and Morgan’s family (Mr and Mrs Harrington class act) I was able to share a moment with my family that brought laughter and light heartiness that I so desperately needed…
    Blink when it becomes the day it will be appropriate to share this fun and light moment with my boys let me know… It kind of brings you back to the days of Kick the Can and Hide and Go Seek… Oh back in the day….

42. FairWitness says:

    March 13, 2010 at 12:48 am

    4 apologies, Blink? Very cryptic. Might there be another 3 arrests coming in this case? I hope so, because it’s highly unlikely a 16 year old teenage boy moved & hid Christine by himself. He may not even be the lone killer. Could have been a gang up on her by the unsavory denizens at that farm. The whole place, according to your description and your haunting first post about the case, is just creepy.
43. suz says:

    In case there is amyone interested in attending there is going to be a memorial service for Christine this Saturday.

    MILFORD, Del.- A public funeral service for a murdered Delmarva woman will be held this weekend.

    Well Blink, today is when justice begins to shine for Christine’s children. Our prayers for her children have been answered. I so want the perps to pay for what they did — but my deepest prayers were to bring Christine home. You and your team did an awesome and honorable job — thank you for being willing to pay the price.
    o/t how did Blinkette do and is the big “one” today? Hope you are having fun with your Mommy-time!!

    Lol, she is “on” for 2 days straight. I am literally in the car with my BB tether, not optimum, but better than posts piling up. Bless her heart she has a C written on her hand with eyeliner.

    Blink:

    We missed you at Christine’s services yesterday.

    They were very tasteful and well attended with family & friends.

    The only disruption was early on when Levi Hall & his mother tried to make their first contact with the children since Christine’s was reported missing and assumed murdered by everyone who knew & loved her.

    It was a very touching time for everyone.

    Maybe we will see you at the sentencing after the trials are over.

    Sincerely,

    We were with you all in spirit Blinkette made an advanced soccer team she tried out for last week which immediately put her in play for a tournament. She is now playing on 3 teams simultaneously for the next few weeks (ugh).

    I would venture to say you will see me before then, whenever Lynn and her family need my support down there. I know we all expect a few more arrests in this case before the prosecution phase starts.

    Just an fyi for those following this tragic case….no more post until the trial.

    MILFORD, Del – Two years after Christine Sheddy went missing her family and friends lay her to rest. On Saturday, funeral service for Sheddy were held at the First Baptist Church in Milford.The 26 year old disappeared in November of 2007. Last month, police found her remains buried behind a SnowPill bed and breakfast. People close to Sheddy say the services brought some closure to the family.

    Dozens of people gathered at the Milford church to mourn the loss of Christine Sheddy.

    “We are here to celebrate her life as a person, as a great mother, as a great friend” said Brandi Bacon

    Bacon grew up with Christine. She says it hurts to see her friend taken away too soon. Bacon says Christine wouldn’t want them to cry.

    “She was the strong one out of all our friends” said Bacon. “If anyone had a bad day she was the one that was on the phone cracking some crazy joke to make sure you are laughing she hated to see people upset.”

    Friends say it’s been a tough time for Sheddy’s family.

    “Her mother has never given up fighting and searching for her and she is going to need a lot of prayers” said Dorothy Doneker, a close family friend.

    Friends believe the service brings some comfort.

    “This is just the beginning of the healing process for the family and for the children” said Doneker”. The kids at least know that their mother never would have left them. She’ll be with them in their hearts forever”.

    Christine Sheddy was buried at Barratt’s Chapel in Frederica, Delaware. Prosecutors charged a 19 year old Texas man in connection to Christine’s
